SHARK WEEK alum and stars of NATURE IS FLY, Luke Tipple, wife Ariana, and daughter Kailiana enjoy the thrills of dog sledding during their ride down Mount Bachelor, Oregon.

Rachel Scdoris, their dog musher, is the first legally blind woman to complete the Iditarod Trail Dog Sled Race, an annual 1000 mile race through Alaska.

The sled dogs are fed a mixture of meat and water to keep them hydrated and give them the extra calories they need to complete their journey. Rachel wants the dogs to be happy and healthy.

When the sled dogs are off duty they're all kisses!

Luke enjoys the ride. These sled dogs can reach a top speed of 30 miles per hour!

The happy family spends some quality time with the sled dogs.

This A-team is led by Charlotte, a one-eyed dog who sets the pace and helps keep the other dogs on the trail.

At the end of their 1 hour journey, Kailiana meets the dogs as they cool themselves off in the snow.

After an exciting day in the mountains, Kailiana and Luke are ready for their next adventure.
